[libvirt] [PATCH v3 00/20] Incremental Backup API additions

The following is the latest version of my API proposal for
incremental backups, and matches the demo I will be presenting
as part of my KVM Forum 2018 talk tomorrow afternoon:
https://kvmforum2018.sched.com/event/FzuB/facilitating-incremental-backup-eric-blake-red-hat
The patches are also available via https://repo.or.cz/libvirt/ericb.git
at the tag backup-v3.
The qemu integration is still incomplete (I don't have push
mode backups working, only pull mode; and there are still some
things to fine-tune as I figure out how to better support
external snapshots and block commit/stream), and I still haven't
gotten any opinions on whether it is better to have:
virDomainSnapshotCreateXML("<domainsnapshot>...") # existing
virDomainBackupBegin("<domainbackup>...", "<domaincheckpoint>...") # this series
virDomainSnapshotCheckpointCreateXML("<domainsnapshot>...", "<domaincheckpoint>...") # new
or to make checkpoint creation part of the snapshot and backup XML, as in:
virDomainSnapshotCreateXML("<domainsnapshot><domaincheckpoint>...</domainsnapshot>") # extension of existing
virDomainBackupBegin("<domainbackup><domaincheckpoint>...</domainbackup>") # tweak to this series
It's also obvious that we don't want to check in the qemu implementation
until after Peter's blockdev work has landed AND qemu has gotten rid
of the x- prefix in its QMP interactions, although the state of this
series SHOULD be sufficient to prove that the proposed interface is
at least flexible enough to adapt to whatever qemu tweaks land and
whatever other hypervisors may support. Whether to accept the API now
(to make backporting qemu support downstream across versions without
rebasing to an even later date for the API) is a harder question;
Jirka has already expressed distaste at the idea.
There are probably still loads of things needing fixing in this version,
I already know I did not address all of Peter's review comments on v2.
My unit test coverage is not very complete on the XML parsing, and there
are definitely some hacks in place to get things to the point of a working
demo that need to be polished for robustness.
Below is a diff since the v2 posting (patches 1-10 here, for later
patches a comparison against the state of my tree at the time I posted v2):
